Barn weddings don’t always have to be rustic. They can be elegant, classy, and whimsical. But because most barns already have that rustic charm to them, and there’s always lots of wood to work with, we think “The Barn Girls” from Ashley + Derrick’s wedding venue, The Barn at Twin Oaks Ranch, did a fab job at mixing in glittery golds, mint green, coral and blush pink to tie it all in!

Simple cakes, but don’t they look so cute next to each other in those different colors?

Once nightfall hits, barn weddings truly shine. Look at how beautiful the venue looks all lit up. Such an adorable couple. We wish them the best. Fun side note: Towards the end of the reception Derrick surprised Ashley by telling her that we were going to Cabo San Lucas on their Honeymoon! Good man.
